Scroll down to the data type MX and it says:

Identifies a mail exchange for the domain with a 16-bit preference value (lower is better) followed by the host name of the mail exchange. Described in RFC 974, RFC 1035.

I have a record in BIND as follows:

mxdomain.com. 86400 IN MX 65536 gmail.com.
I don't think you tell us the truth. Because BIND refuses to load it:

% named-checkzone example large-mx.zone
dns_rdata_fromtext: large-mx.zone:15: near '65536': out of range
zone example/IN: loading from master file large-mx.zone failed: out of range
zone example/IN: not loaded due to errors.
